Pics of the entire substrate would be nice, but if the entire surface looks that white, fruit that sucker.

Here is a pic of the whole tub:

Looks like its time to get my polyfil tightened up. Patience is paying off.

Cheers Notahacker420! Thanks again for the help. I will keep this thread updated with my progress. This is my first time doing any sort of mycology and I couldn't be happier. The Shroomery showed me the way.

Background on the grow:
Started with some rye berries knocked up with PE spores and then spawned to coir using Damian's tek. Ending up with the tub in the pics above. After that I did some G2G transfers going in a TranscendingLife designed still air box and it worked a treat. Those should be ready to spawn soon.

Boy do I love G2G!! Super fast and couldnt be easier! The inoculated jars took FOREVER but had to start somewhere.

Exciting times!!

Here is an update on my monotub... I got my first little guy (3rd pic) and some other strange looking growths that I cant really identify (4th pic down). I dont think they are contams, but hopefully not :smile:

Any help from the resident experts is appreciated.

No, they are just blobs, PE blobs to be accurate.

Genetic and totally expected.

Thanks everyone!

Since the blobs are expected... Does that mean my air exchange/moisture levels are good?

I am fanning a few times a day for about a minute and I let the tub sit in a room with indirect sunlight. I haven't misted yet because it seems like the moisture level appears to be fine (There is some condensation on lid and sides).

if the polyfil is dialed in correctly your tub should be set and forget for the first flush.

all you need is a oscillating fan on 24/7 pointing away from the tub

Thats good news... Thanks fungitarian :thumbup:

I will go purchase an oscillating fan today to get the air circulating. I keep telling my gf "This is the last thing I need, I swear!".

These damn PE are slow going, it seems like im STILL another week out. LOL!! Been at it for a couple months now and my patience is wearing thin. I had to resort to preparing my next batch of B+ just to pass the time. :tongue:

PE is known to be a slow fruiter, give 'em time and you'll be happy :grin:

I have the same problem with my girl too, it seems like every week I need to run and pick something else up.. :lol:

Starting more projects is the best way to past the time, and be productive as hell :wink:

Is it time to harvest?

Also, what is up with the darker corner? It has a lot of blobs and it seemsto be slow growing.

As usual any insight is much appreciated.

Cheers boys! I will pluck them tomorrow!! Im excited about the result of the first experiment. Shroomery rocks!!

Couple questions:

What about the blobs? Do I just leave them? Are they ok to eat?

There are some big crazy mutant buggers :ooo:

To initiate the 2nd flush I just spray some water on the substrate and then fan a few times a day. Correct?
